Welcome to the joint page of the European Commission’s two crisis management departments:
🚨 European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (ECHO)
🚑 Health Emergency Preparedness and Response (HERA)
Together, we bring you the latest news on EU actions that help to:
- Minimise disaster risk and impact
- Boost prevention, preparedness and response actions, including to serious cross-border health threats
- Deliver vital assistance to people affected by conflict, natural hazards, medical emergencies, and other life-threatening incidents both in Europe and across the globe
We also share maps and information from the Copernicus Emergency Management Service (CEMS) combining geospatial imagery with in-situ observations. They support national authorities, emergency responders, and humanitarian organisations in preparing for, responding to, or recovering from disasters such as wildfires, floods, or landslides.
